If you are unsure as to whether a particular word exists in a language pack with the right pronunciation, you can run the GetWordPron action to return the pronunciations listed in the language pack for a specific word.
http://localhost:13000/action=GetWordPron&Name=ENUK&Token=pronunciation
This action uses port 13000 to instruct IDOL Speech Server, which is located on the local machine, to return a list of all pronunciations in the dictionary file associated with the ENUK language pack for the word pronunciation, and returns the following XML response:
<responsedata>
<word>pronunciation</word>
<pronunciations>
<pron>p r ax n ah n s iy ey sh ax n</pron>
<pron>p r ow n ah n s iy ey sh ax n</pron>
</pronunciations>
</responsedata>
where <word> is the word that you submitted as the value of the Token parameter, and <pron> is the pronunciation listed for that word in the dictionary.
